Devilled Eggs, Veggie Sticks, Melba Toast and Cheese if your calories allow Flaked Turkey/Ham/Tuna/Salmon with Whole Wheat Crackers (I use Ryvita Dark Rye) and veggie sticks Homemade Soup Pita (only 100 cals for a Haddad High Protein Pita) with chipotle mayo, lettuce & sliced turkey/chicken on it Oatmeal & Fruit Egg white…

Goal is 16 250ml cups per day. Usually hit between 12-17. 1 cup per hour awake...

Sounds pretty normal behaviour for myself as well... I have only been back for a week or two now since my months on being "on and off again". Try new things to keep yourself motivated. Put up a photo of you at your largest (what you never want to become agian), or you at your smallest (what you are trying to become again)…

I always go the route of lasagna rolls these days. Still look nice enough to serve, and they are easy to portion yourself with. You can also cheat and make a few in a seperate pan that are different for you without it being as obvious... Lay cooked whole wheat lasagna noodles flat. Mix together tomato sauce, cooked ground…

I used to drink one or more cans of diet pop a day. However, I have been trying to cut back, as I feel it is not healthy for me - even if it is calorie free! Therefore, I limit to 1 diet pop on a weekend! ;) I can say that I crave it less and less now... Good Luck to all!!
-
I'm not sure if this actually does good for your metabolism or not... but I can say that it helps me! Eating less food more often causes me to feel full (well, satisfied) pretty much all of the time! This also causes me to want less food when it's time to eat, and to crave less food, as I feel satisfied... Can't hurt to…

Try the laughing cow cheese wedges - come in a variety of flavours as well! ;)
-
I was the same way - but my body got used to it! I have worked my way up to drinking 13-17 cups (250mL each) per day now. I still pee more than the average person, but it's much better than it used to be! ;) GOOD LUCK!
-
I did low carb for quite a while - and able to eat much lower calories on that. However, since then, most trainers & nutritionists that I have met say that you need the carbs - as long as they are good ones! Be sure to eat whole grain stuff (oatmeal, wheat rice, etc...) Beans are also loaded in carbs, but very healthy for…
-
Gum doesn't help?!? Have you tried both the mint and fruity flavours? Otherwise, have veggies sticks around, or a few frozen grapes Try a tea with stevia for 1 calories? You should also consider making lower calorie meals so that you can eat more Save the higher ones for 1 day a week!

I would count my day drom when I waske up, until I go to bed... doesn't matter what times those are!
-
I would put them down, as you would be surprised on some of their numbers - my butternut squash had 24 carbs in it!!!!
-
Congrats!!! Unfortunately, you will probably have to start eating more in order to maintain. That being said, it doesn't have to be bad foods! Add more fruit back in, or more wheat carbs... Try eating healthy food that are higher in calories (beans, etc...) Good Luck!
-
Really depends what you like to eat! You should plan out your meals for the entire week before you step into the grocery store, and then buy only what's on your list. Here are some ideas for you: Lots of fruit Tons of vegetables Salad & Dressings Lean meats (chicken, turkey, fish, extra lean beef cuts, etc...) Greek yogurt…

1, How long did you plan? 9 Months (no, I was not pregnant! haha) 2. How much did you spend? (sorry if that's personal) Was this more/less than you planned?(hoped for 10K, spent 12K) 3. How many people were invited/ how many showed up? (invited about 150, about 135 showed up) 4. What did you give out for favors (if you had…
-
SO with you on the cottage cheese! I keep telling myself I'll like it, but... haha! Greek yogurt is amazing though! Try liberte 0% in any flavour that you like. If you start with plain, it will just taste like sour cream... I agree with the hummus and avacadoes as well, but sweet potatoes & quinoa are alright! ;)
-
I have been attempting to start Chris' theory, but I still have a couple of questions: - On cheat day, can you do anything you want? Don't worry about eating times, or how much water, fats and carbs together, etc?? - On a low carb day, you are still allowed carbs in the morning. Are you allowed to have a fat with them? If…
-
I often prepare mine the night before (either peel each segment, or cut with a knife), then just stick it in a container. The next day, t's a healthy fresh clean snack to eat! ;)
-
Omega 3 eggs are a good choice, and there are cheaper brands that offer this as well. There is fish oil that is much cheaper than the capsules - I pay about $40.00 for 3 months worth. You get used to the taste - it kinda has an orange taste to it. You can also mix it in a smoothie, etc... Good Luck!
-
I regularly make a very simple and quick chicken broccoli. If I have the calories, I eat it on whole wheat rice. Otherwise, I eat it plain. Cut & wash 1.5 heads of broccoli into florets. Cut 3 stalks celery in medium sized piece, and cut 2 carrots into thin oval slices. Put vegetables in dry frying pan and cook on…
-
I would definitely stear clear of the chicken wings! Maybe some wonton soup? Or chicken brocolli? Chicken chow mein? Add a very small portion of steamed rice if required...
-
I've tried to limit myself to 2 per week as a treat (usually on Friday or Saturday nights!). Try drinking more water, or eating gum (gum and pop does not go well! haha) Good Luck!
-
Thanks so much for taking the time to post this!!! ;)

Try dividing your calories into the meal sizes that you like, for example: Breakfast = 250 (protein shake & banana) Snack 1 = 150 (fruit & almonds) Lunch = 300 (chicken breast & vegetables) Snack 2 = 150 (veggies, hummus, cheese) Dinner = 350 (fish, rice, vegetable) Total Calories = 1,200 Or change these numbers based on…

Try to make healthier versions of what you already love. Turkey burgers (and stick to 1 burger with a smaller bun). Add a salad or sweet potato oven baked fries with it... Home-made pizza with chicken or turkey pepperoni and light cheese on a whole wheat pita pocket I love lasagna - so I now make lasagna rolls with wheat…

First one all the way! ;)

My body tends to like less carbs... so when I eat more SmartOnes, I do worse. Try eating tuna/chicken flakes on 2-3 wheat crackers (ryvita, melba, etc..) with veggies and fruit for lunch Try a homemade vegetable soup Try having yogurt and fruit for breakfast I eat more protein now, with loads of veggies for my dinners (no…
